Empagliflozin Versus Statins in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

NAFLD is a growing global health problem linked with metabolic issues like obesity, diabetes, and insulin resistance. It ranges from simple liver fat accumulation to NASH, involving inflammation and liver damage, progressing to fibrosis, cirrhosis, and cancer. Managing NAFLD is tough due to diagnosis challenges and metabolic complications. Lifestyle changes like diet and exercise are key but often hard to sustain. No FDA-approved treatments exist yet, but drugs like Empagliflozin and statins are being studied for their potential to improve insulin sensitivity, reduce liver inflammation, and slow disease progression. This study compares these therapies for NAFLD and NASH.
